Burundi Likely To Experience A Static Role In Extra-Government Non-State Actor Activity Within The Next Five Years

Executive Summary:
Due to political instability, high levels of corruption, and a difficult level of conducting business, it is likely that extra-governmental non-state actors (NSAs), such as the Hutu and Tutsi rebel groups, currently play the most influential but still minimal role within Burundi (represented by its score of 2 on the Extra-Government side of the Role Potential spectrum). However within the next 5 years, it is likely that the role that NSAs play will remain static. This is primarily due to non-existent foreign direct investment and delayed action by the government to privatize the economy.
